I spotted this Bolens on Gumtree (Ireland). The seller say it's the rare G11 one. I copied some photos to see what your thoughts are. For such a rarity the owner have put Massey's decals on....... I could be tempted but it is in Ireland but is a lot closer than the USA!

Rare? Aren't these just one of there "Cheap" models near their end days? More of a Lawn Tractor, than GT? No expert here, that is the body styles that I like, the "plastic" white ones, but like the bigger ones and hydros. I'm thinking just a cheapened up model to sell more. Is this Vertical engine then too?

Yep! Looked back and see was metal, but has same colors as the other plastic models. Must have been transition time or whatever? Never Mind! As noted, no expert on the brand, just like the later plastic hood models in white and green.
